How to block ads on Spotify
Block Spotify Web Player audio and banner ads without Premium.
Spotify's desktop app can't be extended by browser extensions, but the Web Player can. On open.spotify.com, NovaBlock removes audio ad slots and the banner promos across the interface.
What NovaBlock removes on Spotify
- Audio ad slots between tracks (Web Player)
- Banner promos across the interface
- Third-party analytics and telemetry
Setup in under a minute
- Install NovaBlock from the Chrome Web Store.
- Open open.spotify.com and sign in.
- Play any playlist — audio ads are skipped.
This works on the browser-based Web Player only. The native desktop and mobile apps are outside any browser extension's reach.
Frequently asked questions
Does this work in the Spotify desktop app?+
No. Browser extensions can't modify native apps. Use the Web Player at open.spotify.com.
Will it get my account banned?+
NovaBlock doesn't tamper with your Spotify account or session — it blocks ad requests at the network layer, the same way an ad blocker works on any other site.
